Pharasmanes II the Valiant or the Brave (Georgian: ფარსმან II ქველი) was a king (mepe) of Iberia (Kartli) from the Pharnavazid dynasty, contemporary of the Roman emperor Hadrian (r. 117–138). Professor Cyril Toumanoff suggests AD 116–132 as the years of Pharasmanes’ reign. He features in several Classical accounts.
